Where we like to knit
|
If you click on the "About" tab of this website, you will see that I have a gallery of places where I like to knit, courtesy of my husband Tim's photos. Well, it's time to add another photo to that collection!
This time Tim has captured a lovely photo of both Anna and I knitting together in Sweden. It was gloriously sunny and warm during our visit and it was so enjoyable to be able to sit and knit by the side of the lake. In this photo, we are in the gardens of Grönsöö Palace on the shores of Lake Mälaren just to the west of Stockholm. Please click here to read more about this beautiful place. |
